Once hired, your initial substitute training certificate is good for three (3) years and it will expire on June 30th of the third year. Your initial certification must be used to gain employment at a county board of education within the first year of issuance or it becomes invalid. (Policy 5202 ~ 11.5.1.A.)

Permit expired OR you completed RESA training but was never hired by a county board?If more than a year has passed since the day you completed the program, then you must register and take the full 18 hours again to enter a new one-year validation period in which you may apply for work.

If you received your certification through our original online course, you can use our new online course for the renewal process. The renewal version is 12 hours instead of the original 18-hour training. This applies only if your sub permit is still current and active. Once expired, you have to repeat the full 18 hours.
